Developing & Maintaining SMS Compliance in an MRO and 145 for Quality & Safety Personnel – 2 Days

Introduction

EASA is in the process of introducing ICAO Compliant SMS into the 145 regulations. Ref EASA Regulation 2021/1963 With SMS we have a set of regulations, which allow the Industry to establish best practices that fit different cultures and place the main emphasis and duty on improving safety performance.
